American Legislative Exchange Council,(ALEC): Established in 1973 by Paul Weyrich of the Free Congress Foundation's Coalition for Constitutional Liberties, among others, ALEC's purpose is to reach out to state office holders. In the words of ALEC's former executive director, Sam Brunelli:

"ALEC's goal is to ensure that these state legislators are so well informed, so well armed, that they can set the terms of the public policy debate, that they can change the agenda, that they can lead. This is the infrastructure that will reclaim the states for our movement." 62

ALEC has the financial support of more than 200 corporations including Coors now Castle Rock Foundation, Scaife's Family and Allegheny Foundation, Amway, IBM, Ford, Philip Morris, Exxon, Texaco and Shell Oil. William Bennett,[CNP's] Jack Kemp,[CNP's] John H. Sununu, and George Bush have all addressed ALEC sessions in recent years. 63 Footnotes 61-63

Propaganda Due (Italian pronunciation:[propa&#712; &#609;anda &#712;du&#720;e]), or P2, was a Masonic lodge operating under the jurisdiction of the Grand Orient of Italy from 1945 to 1976 (when its charter was withdrawn), and a pseudo-Masonic, "black", or "covert" lodge operating illegally (in contravention of Article 18 of the Constitution of Italy banning secret associations) from 1976 to 1981. During the years that the lodge was headed by Licio Gelli, P2 was implicated in numerous Italian crimes and mysteries, including the collapse of the Vatican-affiliated Banco Ambrosiano, the murders of journalist Mino Pecorelli and banker Roberto Calvi, Notable people on Gelli's listReceipt for membership of Silvio Berlusconi to the P2 masonic lodgeSome notable individuals include:Silvio Berlusconi, businessman, future founder of the Forza Italia political party and Prime Minister of Italy.[24][25]Michele Sindona, banker linked to the Mafia.[26]Roberto Calvi, so-called "banker of God", allegedly killed by the Mafia.[26][27]Umberto Ortolani, leading P2-member.[28]Federico Umberto D'Amato, leader of an intelligence cell (Ufficio affari riservati) in the Italian Minister of Interior.[31][32]General Giuseppe Santovito, head of the military intelligence service SISMI (1978–1981).[11][29]Admiral Giovanni Torrisi, Chief of the General Staff of the Army.[11][29]General Giulio Grassini, head of the intelligence service SISDE (1977–1981).[11][29]General Pietro Musumeci, deputy director of Italy's military intelligence service, SISMI.[29]General Franco Picchiotti.[29]General Giovambattista Palumbo.[29]General Raffaele Giudice, commander of the Guardia di Finanza (1974–1978).[29] Appointed by Giulio Andreotti, Giudice conspired with oil magnate Bruno Musselli and others in a lucrative tax fraud of as much as $2.2 billion.[11][33]General Orazio Giannini, commander of the Guardia di Finanza (1980–1981).[29] On the day the list was discovered Giannini phoned the official in charge of the operation, and told him (according the official's testimony to the parliamentary commission): "You better know that you've found some lists.

Operation Gladio (Italian: Operazione Gladio) is the codename for a clandestine NATO "stay-behind" operation in Europe during the Cold War. Its purpose was to continue anti-communist actions in the event of a Soviet invasion and conquest. Although Gladio specifically refers to the Italian branch of the NATO stay-behind organizations, "Operation Gladio" is used as an informal name for all stay-behind organizations, sometimes called "Super NATO". The name Gladio is the Italian form of gladius, a type of Roman shortsword.[1]

Operating in many NATO and even some neutral countries,[2] Gladio was part of a series of national operations first coordinated by the Clandestine Committee of the Western Union (CCWU), founded in 1948. After the creation of NATO in 1949, the CCWU was integrated into the Clandestine Planning Committee (CPC), founded in 1951 and overseen by SHAPE (Supreme Headquarters Allied Powers, Europe), transferred to Belgium after France’s official withdrawal from NATO's Military Committee in 1966 – which was not followed by the dissolution of the French stay-behind paramilitary movements.

The role of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) in sponsoring Gladio and the extent of its activities during the Cold War era, and its relationship to right-wing terrorist attacks perpetrated in Italy during the "Years of Lead" (late 1960s to early 1980s) and other similar clandestine operations is the subject of ongoing debate and investigation but never proved. Switzerland and Belgium have had parliamentary inquiries into the matter.[3]

<quoted text>The WTC security was ran by George Bush's brother Marvin.Airport security was irrelevant since there were no real hijackers just remote controlled military jumbo jets.

What type of military " jumbo" jets? The type with mannequins sitting at the windows ....just to make it look good at 450 knots. You Truther Twits sure are entertaining......almost as good as the duck call dipshits and the moonshine morons.

In the Sandusky case, the grounds for a conspiracy are unavoidable, it seems, but, even if one choose to dismiss that possibility, it is still difficult to explain how so many people could have allowed things to go so far, knowing that the probability that the whole matter would eventually come out.After all, Graham Spanier’s educational background in marriage and family counseling should have afforded him some kind of insight, or, at the very least, allowed him to understand the gravity of the charges.Ronald RoskensFurthermore, Spanier should have known how damaging even the accusation of sexual misconduct could have been since he had served as chancellor of the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, from November 1991 to July 1995, not long after a similar scandal erupted involving Ronald Roskens, a former chancellor of the University of Nebraska- Omaha.Roskens had abruptly been fired as president of the University of Nebraska, in a secret meeting of the state Board of Regents in July 1989. No public explanation was given for his removal. However, the rumored reason was, at least according to some reports, that evidence of his involvement in various orgies had been reported (incl. surveillance photos of nude young boys in Rosken’s home). Gossip like that could be easily ignored had it not been Omaha.Lawrence E.“Larry” King, Jr.Omaha had earlier been the epicenter of the infamous- though now largely forgotten- Franklin Credit Union scandal.http://politicalgates.wordpress.com/category/...

Roskens has been implicated by multiple authors now as one of the behind-the-scenes operators who walked out of the scandal untouched. He turns out to be a fascinating nexus of parapolitical weirdness in his own right. He's also involved with a Masonic "boy's club" with a remarkable pedigree which I'd never heard of.

From the official boilerplate pre-obituary bio copy:

Five years after moving to Omaha, he was named president of the University of Nebraska System, overseeing four campuses with a total enrollment of more than 41,000 students and a financial budget of $700 million. Representing more than 3,000 universities and colleges, Roskens served as chairman of the board of the American Council on Education; was president of the Association of Urban Universities and has been a member of the Young Presidents Organization.

After retiring from the university in 1989 and serving as President Emeritus until March of 1990, Dr. Roskens accepted an appointment by then-President George Bush as administrator of the U.S. Agency for International Development. As CEO of USAID, Roskens oversaw a major restructuring of the agency, created a more responsible management system and kept tabs on an $8.1 billion budget for the U.S. foreign assistance program.

From January of 1993 until December of 1995, Roskens served as President of Action International, a newly formed organization whose mission is to maximize the impact and insure the development of the InterAction Council, a group of 35 former heads of state or government, who meet annually to make recommendations for positive global relations. Former President Gerald Ford, Helmut Schmidt, Valery Giscard d’Estaing, Lee Kuan Yew, and Mikhail Gorbachev are among it’s current membership.

Since 1996, Roskens has served as President of an international business-consulting firm, called Global Connections, in Omaha. In 1999, the government of Japan appointed him honorary consul general for the Nebraska region to assist Japanese nationals living and working in the Omaha/northern plains regions, to improve trade relations and to monitor local exchange programs with Japan. He also serves as Chairman of the Omaha/Douglas Building Commission; is a board member for ConAgra Foods and The Silverstone Group; and is a member of the Council on Foreign Relations.

The Penn State Sandusky scandal is getting weirder by the day. Besides the delays in reporting a serial child molester for years, in the past week conflicts of interests in presiding judge as well as Penn State investigating committees, we have learned that Sandusky’s lawyer impregnated an underage teen in the past, and a bizarre Sandusky interview with Bob Costas made news.

The most amazing link however has been identified by researchers into Graham Spanier’s past. If it is not odd enough that Mr. Spanier was complicit in not reporting the Sandusky rape to the police, Mr. Spanier has a direct link to the sordid “Franklin Scandal” in Omaha, Nebraska (child kidnaping for sexual abuse and trafficking scandal). Looking at Mr. Spanier’s biography, one can easily see that he served as Chancellor at University of Nebraska-Lincoln from 1991 to 1995 right towards the end of the Franklin scandal. Please note that Lincoln Nebraska is a short drive away from Omaha where most of abuses occurred. If the proximity is not creepy enough, Mr. Spanier’s long time friend and associate Ronald Roskens (former University of Nebraska chancellor and president) was directly linked to the Franklin Scandal as well as its ringleader Lawrence King. Roskens was fired in 1989 from his post when his involvement in various orgies was reported on (incl. surveillance photos of nude young boys in Rosken's home). It is shocking to realize this link when one knows of the abhorrent and deviant abuses which occurred in Omaha during this time and which in a similar fashion to the Penn State scandal was able to persist for too many years.
